Sour Cream Recipe: Vegan and Low-Fat

Sour Cream Recipe: Vegan and Low-Fat

This makes an amazing substitute for sour cream. Better than the original! Refrigerating the mixture for a few hours before using it allows it to thicken and the flavours to develop.

Not only is this low-fat, vegan sour cream delicious and simple to prepare, it also has incredible health and weight loss benefits.

Tofu is the main ingredient in this recipe, and that’s a great thing, gorgeous. Tofu provides exactly the sort of super-satisfying, low-fat, healthy calories we want in a body-shaping meal.

Recent research suggests that adults on a Standard American/Australian Diet would increase their folate, vitamin K, calcium, magnesium, iron, and fibre intake by substituting tofu for meat and dairy. What’s more, the switch would lower their total cholesterol by close to 125 milligrams per day, and daily intake of saturated fat by over 2 grams.

All that, of course, would play a huge role in lowering our risk of obesity and other diseases, and supporting healthy weight loss.

In addition (in case you needed any more reasons to love this ingredient!) tofu is a great source of iron. (So are tempeh, sesame seeds, kale, greens, squash, and pumpkin seeds, you might be interested to know.)

Combine the drained tofu, lemon juice, sugar, and salt in a food processor and process until the mixture is completely smooth.

Transfer to an airtight container, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Enjoy the incredible flavours of this dynamic, body-shaping food!

This recipe can keep in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Use on top of nachos, pizza (I know right crazy! But check it out, you have nothing to lose but kilos), potato salad and pumpkin soup. So good!

Donna Wild, Founder
When Donna was 12 years old, she had a dream to be a dancer and have a house on a property with some happy cows. However, this was the year that doctors diagnosed her with juvenile arthritis and began medicating her for the pain. At 17 years of age, she visited specialists who diagnosed her with chronic rheumatoid arthritis in her entire body and said she would be crippled by the time she was just 22. By then, she had spent her life training to be a professional dancer, however, had become 13 kilograms overweight and directionless.
Donna believes that animal cruelty is wrong and personally suffers when she sees the way humans treat animals, she has worked tirelessly for a decade to empower people and families to eat in alignment with their belief- cruelty-free.
Today, Donna is a Mum of a four-year-old, a Nutritionist, a popular plant-based health and lifestyle author and an Australian Latin Dance Champion. She is completely free of arthritis, pain, and medication.
With her experience transitioning from a meat-eating to vegetarian, to vegan, to purely plant-based diet, and with the tens of thousands of hours she’s put into learning about nutrition and human bodies, Donna has gone just as deep into the ethics behind what we eat which is how she came to found this charity.
Til The Cows Come Home is a charity that aims to be the World Vision for livestock animals, on a mission to rescue animals that are too sick or injured to make it to slaughter and re-home them to a sanctuary to live a full and happy life, just as Donna imaged as a child.
